1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Background: The dopamine D2/D3 antagonist amisulpride has demonstrated its superiority and efficacy in prophylaxis of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). Given the branded intravenous amisulpride (Barhemsys Methods: In this phase III, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, 551 adult Chinese patients (with ≥2 Apfel risk factors for PONV) undergoing elective laparoscopic gynecological or abdominal surgery were randomly allocated in a 1:1 ratio to receive either generic intravenous amisulpride or placebo. The primary endpoint was the complete response (CR) rate, defined as the proportion of patients demonstrating neither emetic episodes (vomiting/retching) nor requiring rescue antiemetics throughout the 24-hour postoperative window. Results: Totally, 542 patients (amisulpride group: n=275; placebo group: n=267) were included in the full analysis set. Amisulpride demonstrated significantly higher CR rate compared to placebo (53.82% vs 40.07%; P=0.0011) within 24-h postoperative period. Patients treated with intravenous amisulpride exhibited significantly lower incidence of moderate-to-severe nausea (28.36% vs 37.08%; P=0.0266) and emesis (44.73% vs 57.30%; P=0.0030) compared to the incidence in the placebo group. The proportion of patients without nausea was numerically higher (45.09%) in the amisulpride group compared to that in the placebo group (37.45%), although the difference did not reach statistical significance (P=0.0685). No significant difference in the proportions of patients receiving rescue medication was noticed between the two groups (21.09% vs 28.09%; P=0.0569). The incidence of adverse events were comparable in two groups. Conclusion: The generic intravenous amisulpride was safe and effective in prophylaxis of PONV in Chinese patients with moderate-to-high risk of PONV to were undergoing laparoscopic gynecological or abdominal surgery.
